Spanish police pulled over a man in an electric wheelchair who was riding along on an expressway after he got lost while looking for a brothel, police and local media said Wednesday.

The 42-year-old man, who is tetraplegic, drove the specially-designed wheelchair which keeps him in a stretched position with the use of his chin and mouth, regional newspaper El Ideal Callego reproted.

He was stopped by police while traveling "at considerable speed" overnight Friday on the highway linking Ferrol with As Pontes in the northwestern Spanish region of Galicia, it said.

A policewoman in the town of Naron in Galicia told AFP the man was not driving at excessive velocity, "but he nonetheless posed an obvious danger to traffic and to himself."

The man was taken to a police station where he was tested for alcohol. The test turned out negative.

You're absolutely right, lefty...everyone needs affection. No insult intended...as I'm sure those ladies of the evening aren't repelled by any man's physical difficulties if he's got their fee! Not that I know a lot about brothels and even less about Japanese ones, but I'm wondering what kind of "affection" this guy was looking for and how he'd go about getting it!

NOBODY has to answer that question, either!
